PADI 5 star IDC, TecRec and Scubapro S.E.A dive center
Here, at our PADI 5 star IDC dive center, all the PADI diving courses are performance based diver training programs. Right from the basic introductory level we emphasize practical knowledge, safety and practical skills.
The PADI training system is comprised of different modules, with standardized learning objectives, divided up into theory and practical skills development. Each module is a stand-alone PADI diving course for which certification is provided to the diver on successful completion of the course.
In keeping with changes in diving practices, PADI have also developed diving courses that extend the range of diving beyond the recreational no planned decompression stop diving. E.G. Diving beyond 40 meters, use of staged decompression, diving in an overhead environment beyond 40 linear meters, use of accelerated decompression techniques or use variable gas mixtures during a dive.
